Football game time set; hoops assistant on move?

Texas announced Monday that its football game at Wyoming on Sept. 12 will kick off at 2:30 p.m. and be broadcast nationally on Versus. The only other games with definite kickoff times so far are the Sept. 19 home game against Texas Tech (7 p.m. on ABC) and the Nov. 26 game at Texas A&M (7 p.m. on ESPN).

In other news, the Longhorns men’s basketball team could be about to experience a big defection, and it’s not about either Damion James or Dexter Pittman. Assistant coach Russell Springmann, the man credited with recruiting Kevin Durant and D.J. Augustin to Austin, has interviewed to become the head coach at Virginia Commonwealth. VCU lost its head coach last week when Anthony Grant went to Alabama.
